Continuation of this discussion...
True. My point was that the main page of this forum has 52 categories, most of which have less than 10 threads. 80% of the posts are in 20% of the categories. Normally I wouldn't care, but the "new posts" link seems unreliable. The clock for counting "new" posts seems to get reset at random times. Then the only way to find new posts is to look through the dozens of categories... tedious.
And another complaint is that the search function doesn't index any words shorter than 4 letters. Try to search for "HS".
These are just minor nits. I still much prefer the forum format over Yahoo Groups.
